This course aims to inform and equip the practitioner with the necessary skills to function in a modern biomedical/clinical environment specialising in caring for the patient with respiratory problems. The incidence of respiratory disease has been increasing worldwide as we see an increase in allergies and as the world population gets older. You will receive training in the skills required in the reading and interpretation of the literature and translating that into evidence based practice. We aim to develop your research and writing skills so that you will be in a position to contribute to the scientific literature in an effective manner.
